Police just released some additional information on the body found April 30 in the woods off Dowdy Ferry Road.

The woman, still unidentified, suffered blunt force trauma, though her death remains unexplained.

Police found the body about 11:30 p.m. after someone called authorities to report the discovery.

Original entry (posted on May 1):

A dead woman in her 20s was found dumped in far southeast Dallas late Tuesday, police say.

The victim was found about 11:30 p.m. in the 2400 block of Dowdy Ferry Road, in a wooded area along the Trinity River where bodies turn up with some frequency.

Like her identity, the woman’s cause of death remains a mystery, although we’ve asked Dallas police whether there was trauma to the body.

For now her death is merely listed as unexplained.
